Study Faith, Do Justice

Come and see about master’s degrees in theology and ministry offered on campus and fully online by the Loyola Institute for Ministry (LIM) of Loyola University New Orleans! 

Join students from south Louisiana, around the United States, and around the world in a program informed by "practical theology," a method involving a rhythm of action and theological reflection that is informed by the rich traditon of Catholic social teaching and is attentive to the signs of the time.

We invite students to put their lives in conversation with their studies and  always to ask "So what?  So, what are the implications of my studies for my faith, my life, my ministry, the Church, the world?"

About the Loyola Institute for Ministry

LIM has a long history of distance education and of preparing adults to be leaders informed by Catholic and Jesuit traditions.  

LIM’s approach includes Ignatian spiritual formation and a strong theological core complemented by focus courses in ministry and religious education.  The program also includes the development of theologically sound and practical ministerial skills leading to professional competency.  LIM emphasizes community and communication. It promotes a broad vision of ministry, which holds that it is practiced in explicitly ecclesial contexts—in churches, schools, dioceses, and beyond—wherever people of faith live and work.
